DP4G is an initiative managed and animated by Bouste.org, a non-profit organisation registered in France (association loi 1901 n° W313021550) with the mission of promoting projects with actual or potential social impact. DP4G has been specifically created to help overcome the lack of knowledge regarding data protection in the humanitarian field and development sector.

DP4G Fundamental and Advanced training will:

• provide you with basic/advanced know-how about data protection

• show you how to apply technical skills to real field challenges, raise your awareness of DP and help you minimise data breaches

• show you how to keep your most sensitive data safe

• let you exchange ideas with participants on interesting experiences from the field.

Do you work in a small organisation helping the vulnerable in your community?

Do you work for a large international organisation delivering aid abroad?

These training courses will give you the tools to help others while better protecting your data and the privacy of your beneficiaries.

As IT experts, we know from first-hand experience how many digital risks and challenges are involved in the current fast-growing digital environment.

As humanitarian workers, we are aware of how quick and efficient you need to be to address specific needs in the field while struggling with several operational constraints.

Still, above all, we commit to protecting beneficiaries. That is why we want to share our 15 years of expertise in the humanitarian and development field as well as in the development of IT solutions to facilitate access to practical, applied data protection tools.

We want to make use of our knowledge, skills and experience and share it with YOU!
